Hi Tom,
I experienced the telegraphing that Paul mentioned. My buddy and I who built our boats together realized that it was happening when doing his boat (I got lucky by being a little slower, read AR, in this case). Dave did 3 or 4 fill coats and the weave was still evident, he sanded it smooth and didn't even seem to come close to the cloth. I did 2 fill coats and just a light hand sanding knocked down the weave without touching the cloth. I did one more fill coat seeing as I was in the process of overbuilding anyway
Happy building,
Ken
: Thanks Paul- I am using 6oz glass. I will apply one more coat and see if I
: can get the coating to a level I feel comfortable to sand back a little.
